When you use that trick:

If you don't want to be disturb by the bright lines
of the 28mm and the 90mm, just put a piece of black tape 
on the bright line frames illuminating window. 

All the bright lines will disappear.

Usable also 
- -for M3 with 35mm without eyes,
- -for M2, M4 with all 28mm,
- -for M4-P and M6 with 1rst and 2d versions of 28mm
(which activate the 35mm frames)
- -for M2, M4, M4-2, M4-P and M6 with Rokkor 28mm
(same problem)
- -M5 : idem M4 but with restrictions
